RE the big bird: In the theme of extinction by ill, chill, or kill. It sounds like Mankind looked at that bird and decided it needed to go and it was probably hunter extinction.
I love the Hittites. Their history intersects with the Mycenaeans, Egyptians, ancient Trojans, Babylonians, and even the Israelites in scripture. Yet, they don't get talked about nearly as much.
The Piri Reis map does not "follow the layout of antarctica" The line there is copied from a speculation in an earlier map of the mythological "southern continent", which on that map is about 4 times the size of antarctica including the present ice.. The "Aircraft" are very clearly flying fish. Jade is only 6-7 on the Mohs scale.
I believe carbonizing steel makes it harder not stronger. It's been a while since I've looked into metallurgy since most things can be made from the same few common types of steel or their relative standard equivalents.
Your explanation of birefringent calcite is garbled. The important property of this stone is that it can detect the polarization of light. The sky is strongly polarized 90° from the Sun, so when the sun is low on the horizon, or slightly below the horizon, but obscured by clouds, the Sunstone can determine its position by observing the polarization of the sky directly overhead, which is 90° from the Sun. I’ve experimented with this and found it to work, though it’s not super-precise.
Simon!!! Lol funny how all the videos with best of features Simon. Miss this channel. Not the same since he left
maybe the real ancient myths were the friends we made along the way
This joke isn't that humorous anymore

They died out because their main food source was hunted to extinction by the freshly arrived humans. That's been known for decades and decades.
I think these are old videos but that being said if Simon is back welcome back Simon
Its Fact Boy! The prodigal son has returned!
I'd give my left testicle for a Dynasty warriors 4 remaster.
SIMONS BAAAAACK!!!!
Ancient Alien Theorists say yes!!! 🤣🤣

Omg is Simon back? Yay!
Pretty sure this is a mashup of older episodes but I could be wrong.
@@christellek7696oh well, I’ll just have to watch his other 20 channels
@@christellek7696I think so too.
The ancient myth that I hope ends up being true: This video is teasing that Simon may be coming back in some capacity.

The Russian Amazons were probably women who participated in war because of the dire situation of their people, and were honored as warriors.
